they're waiting for clarity out of washington about the fiscal cliff. and they're also waiting for demand to go up. they need to share more stuff before they're going to hire people and that's why they're not. this is a problem for a lot of people. it is hard to get back in the labor force when you've been laid off as a baby boomer. it's worth pointing out to also get into the labor force if you're 25 or younger. even if you're a college grad. the unemployment rate among young people is the highest among any age group and unemployment is fairly low among baby boomers. that's largely because many of them have held onto those jobs and they're working beyond retirement age, took a big hit and things like that. all those trends are creating pressure on people. host: independent line, sara. caller: hi, good morning. ok, i am a seasonal retail employee at the moment. and merry christmas, i lose my job december 26. i think the numbers are going to change. i mean, i obviously haven't been working long enough to get unemployment. but i need a question answered,

the back and forth fiscal cliff on capitol hill has sounded more like a washington stage production of war of the world's. the myan calendar may have been correct after all. right on time, congressional republicans are crafting a doomsday scenario for the fiscal cliff. it would allow a vote on extending only the bush middle class tax cuts and nothing elseings, effectively slamming the ball into the president's court for a new year's showdown on the debt ceiling. no compromise on extending unemployment or altering the tax code for those loopholes or raising fed reral revenues. politicians are allowed to thrive off of our democratic life blood. what is missing in light of this january 1st manufactured deadline? any talk of the very real physical foibles in our country. we have chosen to ignore the ways policies have created a governor for and by the entity. when republicans or democrats asked for top earners to pay their fair share, both sides are still ignoring it sources of the fiscal crisis. when so many americans do not make a living wage, the economy cannot recover nor can our budge
